Lamp Quotes

Good friends, how then are meditation and wisdom alike? They are like the lamp and the light it gives forth. If there is a lamp there is light; if there is no lamp there is no light. The lamp is the substance of light; the light is the function of the lamp. Thus, although they have two names, in substance they are not two. Meditation and wisdom are also like this Picture Quote #1

The delicate muses lose their head if their attention is once diverted. Perhaps if you were successful abroad in talking and dealing with men, you would not come back to your bookshelf and your task. When the spirit chooses you for its scribe to publish some commandment, it makes you odious to men and men odious to you, and you shall accept that loathsomeness with joy. The moth must fly to the lamp, and you must solve those questions though you die Picture Quote #1

The fly runs toward the fire or lamp, thinking that it is a flower, and gets burnt up. Even so, the passionate man runs towards a false beautiful form, thinking that he can obtain real happiness, and gets burnt up in the fire of lust Picture Quote #1

Daylight is nobody’s friend. God comes in like a landlord and flashes on his brassy lamp Picture Quote #1

Baba’s words and actions have lit the lamp of love in the hearts of devotees and they will always remember him for the good things he has done Picture Quote #1

... while the light burning within may have been divine, the outer case of the lamp was assuredly cheap enough Picture Quote #1

I have a bit of a lava lamp fetish. They are kind of hideous, but there is something so therapeutic about them Picture Quote #1

It is a most wonderful comfort to sit alone beneath a lamp, book spread before you, and commune with someone from the past whom you have never met Picture Quote #1

The lamp of war is kindled here, not to be extinguished but by torrents of blood Picture Quote #1

Emergencies have always been necessary to progress. It was darkness which produced the lamp. It was fog that produced the compass. It was hunger that drove us to exploration. And it took a depression to teach us the real value of a job Picture Quote #1

Love is not a possession but a growth. The heart is a lamp with just oil enough to burn for an hour, and if there be no oil to put in again its light will go out. God’s grace is the oil that fills the lamp of love Picture Quote #1

I notice increasing reluctance on the part of marketing executives to use judgment; they are coming to rely too much on research, and they use it as a drunkard uses a lamp post for support, rather than for illumination Picture Quote #1

Tell me what you feel in your room when the full moon is shining in upon you and your lamp is dying out, and I will tell you how old you are, and I shall know if you are happy Picture Quote #1

I have but one lamp by which my feet are guided, and that is the lamp of experience. I know no way of judging of the future but by the past Picture Quote #1

Be a lamp, or a lifeboat, or a ladder. Help someone’s soul heal. Walk out of your house like a shepherd Picture Quote #1

No one lights a lamp in order to hide it behind the door: the purpose of light is to create more light, to open people’s eyes, to reveal the marvels around Picture Quote #1

The bravest person I know is afraid of the dark. She sleeps with a night lamp always, but if her friends are threatened? She suddenly thinks she’s a bear twelve feet tall and attacks whoever scared her friends Picture Quote #1

I read my books at night, like that, under the quilt with the overheated reading lamp. Reading all those good lines while suffocating. It was magic Picture Quote #1

In the past, the poverty they shared had a certain sweetness about it. When the end of the day came and they would eat their dinner in silence with the oil lamp between them, there was a secret joy in such simplicity, such retrenchment Picture Quote #1

Argument cannot be answered with insults. Kindness is strength; anger blows out the lamp of the mind Picture Quote #1

Now is the time of the illuminated woods... when every leaf glows like a tiny lamp Picture Quote #1

A lamp can only light another lamp when it continues to burn in its own flame Picture Quote #1

On each race is laid the duty to keep alight its own lamp of mind as its part in the illumination of the world. To break the lamp of any people into deprive it of its rightful place in the world festival Picture Quote #1

Faith is not a light which scatters all our darkness, but a lamp which guides our steps in the night and suffices for the journey Picture Quote #1

Be a lamp to yourself. Be your own confidence. Hold on to the truth within yourself as to the only truth Picture Quote #1

Be a lamp unto yourselves! Work out your liberation with diligence! Fill your mind with compassion! Picture Quote #1

A person writing at night may put out the lamp, but the words he has written will remain. It is the same with the destiny we create for ourselves in this world Picture Quote #1

You are the community now. Be a lamp for yourselves. Be your own refuge. Seek for no other. All things must pass. Strive on diligently. Don’t give up Picture Quote #1

There is the same difference in a person before and after he is in love, as there is in an unlighted lamp and one that is burning Picture Quote #1

Braving obstacles and hardships is nobler than retreat to tranquility. The butterfly that hovers around the lamp until it dies is more admirable than the mole that lives in a dark tunnel Picture Quote #1
